It#s friday, we have to report about a new peek of the week at the official Eve Online site (and later on today there will be the usual Morrowind update). The Peek of the Week features an article about time and calendar in the game:
The Arithmetics wanted the new calendar and clock to have nothing whatsoever to do with old planetary-based calendars, instead they wanted to base it entirely on mathematics. They claimed that the physics-oriented nature of the modern world demanded this. The Traditionalists said the only way to go was to base the new calendar as much as possible on the ancient Earth-calendar. All the races, especially the Jovians and the Amarrians, had some data on the old calendar and by combining the data it could be remade more or less in its original form. Finally, the 25ers claimed that the only measurement worth considering in a space-faring age was that of the human body. The internal body clock of humans is close to 25 of the old Earth-hours, thus they wanted to base the new clock on that measurement. |
